Enquir3 made it easy for me as a consultant to recommend the client engagement process to my clients, because of their level of understanding; the fact that they know what they're doing and they can demonstrate easily how it would benefit us. I was able to reassure my clients that Enquir3 make it really easy for them not to fail, from the ease of the system, to the ready-made templates, someone is there to hold your hand all the way. We have completed two projects so far and they have both been completely different experiences. One client already knew they had a problem but had no evidence, but as a result of their client satisfaction interviews their clients told them, and they then had to act. The customer had over-promised on customer service and knew they would be under delivering, and as a result of the client research they were able to pare back what they were promising, enabling them to focus more on their market differentiation which they can fulfill, rather than throw everything at it. The other project largely came down to customer service. They definitely knew they weren't fulfilling the needs of their clients, but they were not sure of the impact that was having on their business. This client research helped them realise how detrimental their current logistics and operational structure was, which meant these aspects were then nudged up the priority list and enabled them to have more grasp on the changes necessary. We all know the devastating effects unhappy clients can have on a business, but it helps greatly to be able to study the evidence in order to provide the solutions required to change. I specialise in strategic marketing for clients i.e. ROI, which you can't do unless you have a full understanding of why customers buy; which makes this data analysis absolutely critical. This is the key mapping tool that I need to work effectively with my clients.

There was so much packed into the day. What I liked about it was the range of tools that have been brought together for the accountancy profession. I've got the years of experience working with accountancy practices so I was looking to see what the basic proposition might be. I'm always interested in an opportunity. There are a couple of outstanding tools that could be extremely useful and that I'm interested in perusing further. I was very happy with what was presented and the follow up has been very good so I'm not at all disappointed.

I personally liked the experience of the different pieces of software; just finding out about them in more depth, as I'd been told about them but didn't have a really good understanding of what they did and what they were aimed at.
It was also an opportunity to meet other people who are working to the same objectives.
I came away with some good contacts. It was good to actually talk to other people and get networking at lunch time. I also gained a better understanding of the three softwares and what they could do.

I liked the numbers that were in the room i.e. it wasn't a huge gathering, it was a room in which there was an opportunity to have a conversation with lots of different people, but also for that conversation to be a discussion at times, with a number of people, which wouldn't have worked if it was a larger crowd.
ReplyThank you so much Gerard for your comments. We are so pleased to hear you thought the seminar had the right number of people to work. We look forward to working with you in the future.

There were lots of interesting and quite dynamic presentations. the thing that particularly stood out for me was the opportunities around the Virtual Finance Director. I went for a whole range of things, but mainly to find out more about Virtual Finance Director and Risk Dashboard
I came away with a whole range of opportunities in terms of business advisory.

It was well organised. It was a great day, well worth attending
I took lots away from the event. I think I came across four business systems that will help my business a great deal, but the main thing is it will help my business as it's helping other people's businesses be better which is a win win situation all around; it will create more business for the providers and for the clients it will help.

The presentations were good and I also think, from a personal perspective, the people in the room were of interest to me from a business relationships standpoint. I wanted to meet some new connections and learn a bit more, and I certainly achieved that.

I came at it from a slightly different perspective to most of the attendees who were mainly business advisers, whereas we're a potential partner; it was an education for us really to see what the business model is, and what the potential is. It looked very interesting. I think the Virtual Financial Director and the Risk Dashboard looked very good. It was interesting to see both of those.
I think there was some potential opportunity for us to work with Business Mastermind Groups in the future.

It was a very professional 'can do' environment and I enjoyed that. That's the best way to sum it up. It was very positive with people who had the answers to any question you may have.

It's a very honest, open and friendly service. It's helping me get a better grounding in the financials, and I'm meeting new people as well. I'm hoping to be working closely with Ray, Steve and Mark in the future.

Really good people; they come across as believing in what they are doing and genuinely coming across as a group that want to help others. As of today it hasn't been of benefit to my company yet, but in the future I think it will be of significant benefit. I'm an operations person, I can't seen numbers, I always rely on a financially qualified person to tell me what the figures mean, but this course is showing me how to get valuable information, in English, with pictures, that I can discuss with an accountant, or business owner, on an equal footing. There's so much gold dust being spread in my direction I'm just hoovering it up at the moment. I haven't had time to stop and think. It's a subject I've not dealt with on a day to day basis before, and by December I need to get up to speed so I have the courage to go out and talk to accountants and business people on this subject matter with confidence. I have no doubt at all that for the first one or two encounters with potential customers, be it accountants or business people, that I'll have Steve watching my back and helping me.

The course is delivered very enthusiastically. It's got very good supporting materials for us to review and to do our homework. It's good that it starts on time which is a bit of a rarity, and it's a very nice, friendly bunch, both the presenters and the cohort. It will allow me to engage more effectively with accountants so that they can grow their business and in turn I can grow my business. They say what they have to say, they check our understanding, if we want to ask questions we do, and any questions asked are always answered fully.

The thing that stands out is the professionalism, and that all the material has been very carefully thought through; The further in we go, the better it looks. I've also signed up as a partner on the portal so I'm starting to see stuff that as a partner. In one sense it hasn't benefitted us yet as I've not been able to talk to other people about it yet, but I expect it to affect new clients in my own business where I will provide the portal, and also to work with accountants to implement the system for them to work with their clients.

The bit that stands out for me is that we have a product, an ultimate end use product, that's extremely good, but the bit I like about the course is that it very much explains the benefits that you can then deliver to people, which is over and above what any other course has been able to deliver. Others are selling a similar product, but they just give you it and send you on your way, where we're looking at how you're going to use the product, which is more important, and of more benefit, to me.
I had my business going in a general direction I was quite happy with, and had been looking at and fine tuning over a number of years. We're now looking at VFD etc. as part of that programme; The comment I have made to a few people now is that, at 67, in my business life there have only been two outstanding products, or things I can offer going forward, and this is the second one, and that's how highly I rate what we do on this course. It's the second one in my life, of what I'd describe as an opportunity to do something, to be outstanding versus other business advisors. The majority of my work comes through relationships with accountants, and in actual fact they like it and are finding it of significant value once we get the point across. I'm actually calling Steve this morning about more accountants who want to get involved with us.
We're at the early stages of building a programme with this, and we're the first group. It's very open; they take feedback and listen to it. The more you go back and ask the questions, rather than them seeing it as an annoyance, they see it as someone getting involved and wanting to learn more, and they evolve with it as well. I'm really pleased.

What I like best is it's spaced out and piece meal, so we're not getting inundated with reams of information and have plenty of time to work on things. The course has benefitted our business very well; the easiest thing I can say is that, with the information we receive, it gives us the confidence to speak to our target market. It is over 12 weeks and we're very familiar now with zoom now and I'm happy taking part in that way.
I have always seen accountants as a good route to market for my services but in many cases they do not like to engage with business advisors. By working with Business Advisor and using the VFD-Pro product I have been able to break down these barriers by providing accountants with something they can understand and see the clear benefits from. In turn VFD-Pro has highlighted issues in their clients’ business that need specialist advice and guidance which I am more that happy to provide!

The best part of the Business Advisor Programme was the clarification of the process and what it would mean for my business. A method to generate more business of the ideal profile, without having to spend money on conventional marketing. Referrals are always the best kind of new business, so to be able to save money on all the usual promotional methods and avoid the pains of cold calling and networking, whilst improving the client profile and therefore the bottom line, is particularly interesting.

I liked the accessibility and availability of the BA team to support my sales activity, which is very good. There is a good atmosphere about the BA team and associated advisors all of whom want to hep each other to succeed. I would recommend Business Advisor to anyone who is wanting to work with SMEs to help them uncover problems and opportunities. The tools that BA have are unique and will almost definitely create opportunities in every prospect that you meet.
